It was a gorgeous day for this first of Spring OSBC birdwalk. Don and Jack made everyone feel welcome, and we all enjoyed a trek through woods and fields. The highlight of the day for me were 3 Red Shouldered Hawks circling overhead and my FOY Bluegrey Gnatcatchers.

The Caratunk bird walk was truly enjoyable. Don and Jack did a nice job leading us through the grounds. The highlight for me was the Blue-gray Gnatcatcher. This tells me that the passerines are on their way.
